Product description. this elegant little teardrop caravan has a sculptural design built upon stitch-and-glue boatbuilding techniques. it provides a surprisingly luxurious internal space in a compact exterior and can be towed behind a small car.. Building a tear-drop like camper using stitch & glue technique..

Stitch and glue truck camper? it is huge and heavy. been thinking about just building up my own camper to reduce the size and weight, all we want is a warm place to cook some food after skiing all day.. The clc teardrop camper is built from high-quality okoume marine plywood in a simple slot-together female mold, stitch-and-glue style. in this system, you assemble pre-fabricated components with temporary wire stitches to form a sturdy, rigid, elegantly-shaped camper shell..
